Isolated lumbar extension resistance training improves strength, pain, and disability, but not spinal height or shrinkage ("creep") in participants with chronic low back pain
(Cartilage, 2020)
Objective. Loss of disc height is commonly associated with chronic low back pain (CLBP). Isolated lumbar extension (ILEX) exercise for the lumbar extensors is recommended to treat CLBP and is suggested such exercise might ...
Variability in strength, pain, and disability changes in response to an isolated lumbar extension resistance training intervention in participants with chronic low back pain
(Healthcare, 2017)
Strengthening the lumbar extensor musculature is a common recommendation for chronic low back pain (CLBP). Although reported as effective, variability in response in CLBP populations is not well investigated. This study ...
Determining the reliability of a custom built seated stadiometry set-up for measuring spinal height in participants with chronic low back pain
(Applied Ergonomics, 2016)
Indirect measurement of disc hydration can be obtained through measures of spinal height using stadiometry. However, specialised stadiometers for this are often custom-built and expensive. Generic wall-mounted stadiometers ...
